In IESVE tutorial pdf file, the tutorial for HVAC section is not completely finished but I found this :

"After running the simulation, a user can view results at any point
in the network
— how much air is supplied to a room at any time?
How much load is on the coil? How long does it take the rooms
to warm up in the morning? How much energy is consumed?"

How could I view this kind of detail please ?

note : I just move to IES 6.1 from 5.9.2.

If you run the simulation with the HVAC link checked and specify "ApacheHVAC system results" in the simulation output options you'll be able to get these detailed HVAC results.

In Vista edit the room browser dropdown to choose Systems then select the HVAC system from the browser, expand it and you will see the HVAC network is displayed in the network. You can edit a dropdown on the Vista toolbar to choose to interrogate results at nodes in the network or the components themselves (sounds like you want the nodes results/variables).

Section 8 of the Vista User Guide has all this info http://www.iesve.com/downloads/help/Thermal/Vista.pdf
